Prevention of medicinal hepatitis, do these six things well

The liver is the main metabolic and detoxification organs of the human body, and it is also the main target organs of drug toxicity. Liver damage caused by the metabolites of drugs or drugs is called "drug hepatitis". According to data from the World Health Organization, there are 40 million patients in patients with drug -based hepatitis, and medical expenses account for 15%. Elderly patients are more likely to lead to the occurrence of medicinal hepatitis under the action of certain drugs.

What are the performances to be warned by pharmaceutical hepatitis? Generally, patients will show symptoms such as liver region discomfort, nausea, vomiting, and urine yellow, but they are sometimes "invisible killers", and some patients can be discomfort. They are diagnosed during routine physical examination. This part of the crowd is Often, chronic diseases need to take medicine for a long time and fail to follow up liver function in time, resulting in tragedy.

A few days ago, the first adverse report of pharmaceutical liver damage in mainland China was released. Professor Xiao Xiaohe's team surveyed the characteristics of the drug composition of drug-related liver injury in my country, showing that in the relevant reports of 2012-2016, chemical drugs accounted for 94.5% Chinese herbal medicine accounts for 4.5%, biopharmaceuticals account for 0.8%, and others account for 0.2%. The survey analysis reminds that Chinese herbal medicines are not the main cause of Chinese medicinal hepatitis. Do not exaggerate it, but do not underestimate.

As the saying goes, "the medicine is three -point poison", the drugs that can directly lead to drug -based liver injury are Kunming Begonia, Yellow Pharmaceuticals, Ai Leaf, Pyramid, White Fresh skin, bitterness and bitterness, Cangei, Ray Gong Tengto , Thousands of miles, Wangjiang Nanzi, majestic yellow, vermiculite, winter leaves, white fresh skin, etc. At the same time, ancient medical books such as "Compendium of Materia Medica" all described the toxicity of Chinese herbal medicines, and introduced the method of processing Chinese medicine processing to reduce toxicity and compatibility of traditional Chinese medicine composite to reduce toxicity.

We noticed that there are still these factors caused by the drug -based liver injury caused by traditional Chinese medicine:

First, if you do not distinguish the syndrome, you can talk about treatment. "Pharmaceutical" is not credible. Traditional Chinese medicine has a system of dialectical treatment and treatment. It is the root of medication. It is also necessary to use the dialectical of the doctor, and "ginseng can also kill people."

Second, use Chinese medicine at will. Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes that "the Chinese disease is stopped" and "the decline is mostly stopped". At different stages of the disease, the disease should be followed by the principle of dialectical treatment. The treatment should not be extended at will and the dosage should be increased at will. Treatment of traditional Chinese medicine is to reconcile the human body yin and yang with the help of the drug, and it hurts people.

Third, buy medicine wrong ways. Traditional Chinese medicine materials purchased by regular hospitals and Chinese pharmacies have strict supervision, including growth environment, storage and transportation. It is not advisable to buy medicine on the road on the road. Chinese medicine pays attention to the processing. After the drug is produced, the toxicity is greatly reduced. It is difficult for us to distinguish whether the drug production is distinguished, and it is difficult to identify the drugs with similar shapes. Once they are eaten, the consequences are unimaginable.

To prevent medicinal hepatitis, do these things well:

First, those who take Chinese medicine for a long time will review the liver function every three months and do liver ultrasound examination once a year;

Second, do not buy Chinese medicine at the stalls and vegetable farms;

Third, do not take traditional Chinese medicine according to the so -called "secret recipe";

Fourth, long -term traditional Chinese medicine soup is dangerous;

Fifth, drugs that may cause liver injury have occurred no longer consumed, and told the doctor during the consultation.

Sixth, the drug should be discontinued immediately.

Drug -based hepatitis cannot be underestimated. Everyone competes for liver protection, rational use of medication, and avoiding risks.
